We're not picking on you Observer. 

I think we are all just interested in "observing" how you are going to prove your claim.

The conclusive resonance experiments on tuning forks?

Dear Observer,

It looks like we have a good chance of raising US$200 and getting 20 sets of tuning forks from China.  Each set will have one tuning fork, one resonance box and one hammer.

Can you please help to define and co-ordinate what type of experiments should be done?

Some of my suggestions include:

1.   Use one tuning fork, record the loudness and duration of the sound with a video camera placed at a fixed distance from the tuning fork (e.g. 1 meter).  Repeat multiple times to average out the differences in striking force.

2.   Repeat step 1 with two tuning forks.  Vary the distance between the two tuning forks and the orientation of the resonance boxes to get the best result.  Keep the distance of the first tuning fork to the video camera constant (e.g. 1 meter).

3.   Repeat step 2 with 3, 4, 5……20 tuning forks. Keep the distance of the first tuning fork to the video camera constant (e.g. 1 meter).

4.   Replace the video camera with a microphone with output connected to an oscilloscope.  Repeat steps 1-3. The oscilloscope readings can be recorded and captured on a computer for accurate analysis.

@Observer, please take the lead in defining the actual experiments.  I shall take responsibility in raising the US$200 and getting the 20 sets from China to USA.  They can even be shipped to an agreed reputable University or Research Organization.  Make sure the experiments are repeatable.  Thank you.

My experimental goal is to confirm that more energy is brought-in such that more tuning forks at sympathetic vibrations show much louder and longer sound.  The sound energy or intensity (or whatever makes scientific sense) at a fixed location from the first tuning fork can be conclusively shown to be higher.

All other forum members, especially poynt99  are welcome to provide constructive suggestions on such a scientific experiment.  Thank you.

I believe that the Almighty is guiding us to do the right thing on these sound resonance experiments.

Dear all,

Thanks for your time on this.

I am only signing on once per day... Sorry.
I don't have time to worry about this during the day or get all worked up before bed.

Poynt,

You said,

Take your depicted setup, and place a similar or identical speaker near the tube,
or anywhere you can that produces the most excursion of the speaker diaphragm, or measured AC output.

        Use the AC being generated by this speaker and rectify the output to DC
        so that it can power the same source that is feeding your speaker amplifier.

Then disconnect the DC source supplying this amplifier and see if it continues to run
only on the energy sourced by your "resonant" pickup speaker.

---> The question is to see if sound is being amplified...<--- not to make a self running device.
However, I think your idea is a good start to a level 3 or level 4 experiment having to do with this phenomena.

It is important to realize that the tube uses only a SMALL PORTION of the wave energy emanating from the speaker.
This small portion of wave energy is what gets amplified.

One logical way of seeing if a wave is amplified comes to mind.
                                                                                                    How bout comparing input wave vs. output wave ?
                                                                                              E2Matrix suggested a purchasing a Decibel Meter... good idea !

LT,

1. My advice is to trust the Dictionary's Definition and get on with resonating multiple ignition coils from a JT setup.
    - The naysayers will figure out the conundrum of sympathetic vibration when they are ready.

2. I do understand putting together some simple and undeniable demonstrations is important to you.   
    - E2Matrix's suggestion about buying a Decibel Meter is a great idea for demonstrating amplification.

3. If doing the tuning fork experiment, then just compare  Decibel Reading  vs.  Time of Ring     for each possibility.
    - Remember that the Sound dBs are used to describe relationships of POWER.
    - To find Power Ratio use the formula...   L_Db = 10log₁₀(P2/P1)

4. No money for tuning forks?
     a. Go to the local Guitar Store.
     b. Use Charm to convince operator to put the same strings on an Electric Guitar as there is on an Acoustic Guitar.
     c. Tune Both Guitars.
     d. Compare 1 hard strum...   Electric vs. Acoustic       with Decibel Meter and Stop Watch.

Why bother?
This thread is wasted with and without you.
Better seek some REAL project in stead of playing with resonance.

The American Dream or Nightmare

Phone call from an old school mate who immigrated to USA about 12 years ago.  At that time, he sold his house and business.  He had over US$1 million cash.  He took early retirement.

Friend: “I learned that you came to retire in USA from our other school friends.  We have not met for over 12 years now.”

Tseung: “The last time we met was when you immigrated to USA.  How do you find your retired life in USA?”

Friend: “It is turning into a nightmare.  You know that I have eight children and most of them are not doing well.  Instead of their helping to support me, I have to support them with my diminishing assets.”

Tseung: “From what I can gather, they all have nice homes and two cars.  They all graduated from Universities.  Some of them have children of their own.  You should be a proud grandfather.”

Friend: “That was on the outside.  The down payment for their homes all came from my assets.  I had to remortgage my home.  At first, I thought that I paid for my home totally and still had plenty of money in the bank.  The interest alone would support my daily expenses.  Unfortunately, the bank interests were so low that such a plan was voided.”

Tseung: “Your children are all University graduates.  They should all have good jobs.”

Friend: “It was my fault.  I spoiled the first one.  When he graduated, I paid for the down payment of his home and the total amount of his car.  His house was bigger and more expensive than mine.  The feeling at that time was that the property will appreciate in value and his income would increase rapidly.”

Tseung: “That was a realistic assumption.  What happened?”

Friend: “He got married and had two girls.  His wife could not work.  His income as a computer programmer was insufficient to support the mortgage and other expenses.  He decided to go into Fast Food Franchise business.  He remortgaged (or borrowed to the highest possible limit).  The Fast Food business is earning less than his computer job.  The income is not sufficient to pay the refinanced mortgage.  I have to subsidize him every month.”

Tseung: “How about the other children?”

Friend: “I made the mistake of trying to be fair.  I paid for their home payments and bought each one a car.  Some of the houses were bought at the peak price.  They are now at negative worth.  Two defaulted and their homes were repossessed by the bank.  They went into Amway type of business and are living with their in-laws or at the homes of other brothers and sisters.”

Tseung: “I believe one of your sons is a medical doctor.  He should be relatively well off.  The medical profession is recession proof.”

Friend: “He broke our hearts.  We were so proud of him.  He married a beauty queen.  He had a luxurious mansion, a Yacht and a fleet of sports cars.  We thought that he could singlehandedly support the whole family.  But it turned out that he was associated with the drug lords.  He was laundering money and helping them with the drug business.  He is in prison and all his possessions are gone.  It was the temptation of the evil money.” 

Tseung: “Your American Dream has turned into a Nightmare.  Pray and turn it around.  God works miracles.”
